Dear Family,
Adra and I worked together for many years at Browning Pearce.  I also attended Open Bible Baptist when Wells was pastor.  She and I worked together in Awana. I taught Johathan in the second grade. We will all truly miss such a wonderful friend.  I send my heart felt sympathy.
In Christ,

Adra will always be remembered for her thoughtful and kind ways. I always enjoyed working with her she was a true friend and a good person all the way. I will remember her with great fondness... she used to come in my office for her morning break (grapes) and we would discuss all kinds of things. I am so sorry about your loss but her pain is no more.

I was  saddened to learn of Adra's passing.  She was my teaching assistant in 1974 at Browning Pearce Elementary School Campus 2.  She was always fun, prepared and a GREAT help to me as well as the kids in our SLD Class. Know that you are all in my thoughts and prayers. She always spoke of Pam and John and what her Dad was doing. Remember the fun times and lean on those memories.
My love & sympathy
